Promenading from Clifford’s Tower to York Mansion House
Dancing outside York Mansion House
We demonstrated dances, many of which were written – and all were certainly danced – during the reign of George III such as Comical Fellow (1776) Duke of Kent’s Waltz (1801) and Emperor of the Moon (1690). Many of the audience in St Helen’s Square then joined us in dancing My Lord Byron’s Maggot (1701) and Sprigs of Laurel (1790).
